A Comparative Study to Assess the Perception and Acceptance Level Regarding Traditional Lecture Method and Simulation Based Learning Among Nursing Students at SGT University Gurugram, Haryana

Abstract

Teaching in nursing is based on learning theories and aims to enhance
knowledge and skills. Traditional lectures are teacher-centered and focus on theoretical
delivery with limited student participation, whereas simulation-based learning is
student-centered and allows practice of clinical skills in realistic and safe environments.
With technological advances, simulation has become an effective tool to bridge the gap
between theory and practice. A self-structured questionnaire was used to assess nursing
students' perceptions and acceptance of traditional lectures versus simulation-based
learning.
